Requests for license reviewer rights[edit]

(Translate) (purge this page's cache)

Before requesting, please read Commons:License review and relevant pages such as Flickr files.

To become a reviewer, you need to be familiar with the general licensing policy of Commons and the common practices of reviewing. A reviewer is required to know which Creative Commons licenses are allowed and disallowed on Wikimedia Commons. You should be dedicated to license reviewing every so often and offer your help in the backlogs. You can demonstrate your knowledge by regularly participating in deletion requests or New Files Patrol.

Post your request below and be prepared to respond to questions. The community may voice their opinions or ask a few questions to verify the applicant's knowledge. After a few days, a reviewer or administrator determines whether there are no severe objections to the applicant. If there are not, the user will close the request and add the applicant to the list of reviewers. If permissions are granted, you can add {{User reviewer}} (or one of its variants) to your user page and begin reviewing images.


Click the button to submit your request. Alternatively, copy the code below to the bottom of this page, and only replace "Reason" with the reason you are requesting this user right. Requests will be open for a minimum of two days (48 hours).

=={{subst:REVISIONUSER}}==
{{subst:LRR|{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}|Reason ~~~~}}

To close a request, please wrap the entire section excluding the section heading with {{Frh}} and {{Frf}}. If the request is successful, please leave this message {{subst:image-reviewerWelcome}}--~~~~ on the applicant's user talk page.

SpBot archives all sections tagged with {{Section resolved|1=~~~~}} after 1 day and sections whose most recent comment is older than 5 days.
